where unpleasant words go when they die



Is there a light?

Hello guys, its been a while.
Major change in scenery.
Moved from muscat to bangalore/bengaluru.
Been staying at a hotel for over a month.
Don't have a home yet.
Quite lonely.
Here's the first thing ive written up in a long, long time.


--------------------

He reached in.

Skeletal arms disappearing into a similarly skeletal torso.
Disappearing into a void, an abyss.

Flailing around desperately, but failing.
Feeling only the silky,velveteen touch of nullity.

He felt the voices resonate through his cranium once more.
 --

You are death, yet you are life.
You are sorrow, yet you are joy.
You are master, yet you are slave.


Reach for the light.


Reach for the light, and be whole again.

He said to himself:

"It must be there."

"somewhere."
